Co-hosts Tad and Aleks share stories with each other and "interview" others about the endless shenanigans we or our guests have experienced as well as going back and forth about various nerd topics. Everything from nearly being arrested outside of a comic shop, going to PAX, shutting down Neopets, absolutely terrible MOBAs, filming and acting in three feature length indie films, dreams with legitimate sequels, and even more asinine stories.

Only one more year until 2019! We kick off our 2019 celebrations early with a prequel episode to the podcast sensation that will be sweeping the nation next year. Look forward to the 2019 round up but for now treat yourself with our LMTYA year in review for 2018.

Tad and Aleks discuss how Toby Fox created Undertale/Deltarune and his use of leitmotifs in storytelling. A retrospective on Undertale shows where it succeeded and where it fell short game design-wise. We also cover what we believe Deltarune is all about and go a bit into music theory.

Smash Bros Ultimate has leaked out for data-miners and the possibility of Steve Minecraft DLC hangs above us all like a guillotine. In other news Aleks speaks of The Walmart Tower and we talk about the dumb stuff we've been up to since October.

On this episode of Guest Boyz we have two undiscovered Youtube talents by the names of 8-Bit Brody and Dumbest of All Worlds. Both criminally unknown the the high quality stuff they make I thought it would be fun to have them on the show to talk about what its like before you 'make it' as a youtuber.

Aleks and I talk about the advantages and disadvantages of a physical TCG game and a digital version. I also talk about the three features a digital card game cannot replicate that are easily done in any physical card game.

Homestuck #4 is kicking my butt so we've got a bonus episode with "official 24-year old boomers" Aleks and Matt as we crack open our respective sips and rev up our mowers to talk about old-school MMOs.

Tad and Dan from Revival: A Dungeons and Dragons Realplay Podcast are back for some DM Tips and Tricks in another DM Workshop. This time we're building a One-Shot adventure from a the ground up.

In this episode us ~Bros~ talk about the Pewdiepie's anime redemption arc. Pewdiepie is a pretty smalltime youtuber with about 70 million subscribers. Real low key like Markiplier, JackSepticEye, and a bunch that i'm too old to know about in my early 20s. Most people know PewDiePie from his survival horror lets plays and the screeching face cam, however he's changed greatly since 2011 into producing genuinely entertaining and well made videos.

Joe finally sits my happy ass down to watch a movie I've been missing for a while by the name of 'Taxi Driver.' I actually had a chance to watch this movie in theaters but opted for 'The Martian in 3D.' Let's find out if I made the right decision.

Aleks and Tad dive into the slot machine company (we think?) called Daito Music and how they have crafted a world and cast of characters that, despite the language barrier, have managed to touch our hearts.
Also Aleks makes a fake identity.

Back after a break and boisterious as ever it's ya Noyz BoyZ Tad and Aleks! We update n'yall on what we've been up to and talk about space truckstops, weddings, and not a single Overwatch mention! Also we're going to EVO 2018 to get ourselves decimated (which means to take away 1/10 of something for your future reference)

We go over what makes a fighting game, the mindset needed to succeed in the genre (enjoy your losses!) and most importantly why fighting games are fun. We cover proper training mode techniques and attitudes to help a player learn the ins and outs of the genre and expediate their journey from scrub to expert.

Joe along with local radioman Ryan Ziegler talk about the original blockbuster Jaws. A longer than usual episode with a lot of joe moments (or joements as we call them) and a lot of behind the scenes information about the production of Jaws.

The Boyz ignore the itching at the back of their minds about the possibility of total global annihilation by talking about their favorite videogame soundeffects and cutscenes! And don't forget about the variety of mobile games to occupy your attention when you stray from your current task. We also talk about the ANGRIEST we've ever been at a game. A lot of different emotions in this episode.

The first and probably last Adam Sandler movie to make the Best Boyz list, Punch-Drunk Love! Funnyman Adam Sandler plays his usual socially awkward and bottled-up character but placed into a typical Rom-Com setup that results in an incredibly interesting film.

Aleks and Tad talk about Dragonball Z and our experiences with the best "cartoon" on TV (circa early 2000s). We go over our favorite parts of the series and express what we love, and what we hate about Z, GT, and Super.

This week Aleks and Tad talk about loot boxes and their sudden presence in both multiplayer and singleplayer games. We go from the alleged first instance of a lootbox system in a videogame up to the current EA Battlefront 2 controversy. Are loot boxes always terrible? Is there a proper way to use them or will they always be a bad idea?

Tad and Joe finally watch the first of the Alien series one of the largest scifi movie franchises ever. We talk about the history of the movie, the fantastic artstyle, and how much scarier the Xenomorph would have been if they used the screen test version.

Tad and Joe go over David Lynch's first movie Eraserhead a 90 minute nightmare that never ends about the horrors of child rearing (maybe) the apocalyptic future (maybe) or possibly chickens (probably).

Funny Games (US) is a (mostly) shot for shot remake of a German film of the same name and same director Michael Haneke. Funny Games tells the story of a grim and gritty Undertale AU where evil papyrus and Sans find ways to entertain themselves, mostly through home invasion.

We JUST missed the TF2 update for this Patreon sponsored BONUS BOYZ but before Halloween we've got a SPOOKY NOYZ BOYZ in which we complain about Free 2 play robot mmos, Aleks shocks me into silence with his horrible Cuphead opinions, and we share some Trick or Treat stories.

Its finally here! The first of four episodes detailing Tad's experience and views on Homestuck, the comic that ruined his life.

Episode two of the patreon Bonus Boyz segment. This month we have Robert Lake of Homestuck fame on board to discuss what it was like to work on Homestuck's music alongside the author and the rest of the music team. Also, his work pre and post homestuck.

A film based on the manga/book written by Koushun Takami, Battle Royale is a story about a facist Japanese government who kidnap a group of "troublesome youths" and force them to fight to the death on a deserted island. Basically it's a total ripoff of the hunger games :^)

Darkest Dungeon was a game Tad had his eye on for a very long time despite Aleks' repeated warnings. Wrapped up in the games setting and immersive gameplay Tad was subject to horrors beyond comprehension. Are we just two scrublords or are there legitimate problems with the game design?

Actual content warning
We thought it would be interesting to show how the same mind that thinks of wacky kid cartoons about pink sand golems can use that same cinematography and worldbuilding for a much darker use.

Season finale of Aleks' Dream Series with probably one of the most fucked up dreams I've ever heard. Its not for the light of heart. But theres also Will smith in a Wal-Mart coat rack! So feel free to drop out after that.

Another roleplaying based episode this week as DJ, his brother Deadeye, Gonzales, and myself entertain you with a provocative tale of one girl and her crippling dragon dildo obsession almost ruining a shadowrun RPG campaign.
